A true choker-sized necklace by the Los Castillo workshop which can, nevertheless, easily accept a simple extension (please, ask if you need one), this is a design I have always admired for its perfect combination of sterling repousse links and bi-cone (or sometimes even flattened circular) glass beads. Very well made and so easy to enjoy no matter what the occasion is, our version is adorned with amethyst-colored beads that cast a purple shadow on the already warm patina of the silver. The necklace measures 14" long (wearable; 14 1/4" end-to-end) by 5/8" wide and weighs 52.2 grams. It is signed with the workshop's signature as shown as well as "MADE IN MEXICO STERLING" and des. no 380. It dates in the 1940s and is in excellent vintage condition with warmly glowing patina, beautifully executed repoussage, nice color in the bi-cone beads and no damage or repairs noted.
